Enhancing ferromagnetic coupling in CrXY (X = O, S, Se; Y = Cl, Br, I) monolayers by turning the covalent character of Cr-X bonds

Abstract On the basis of first-principles calculations, we investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of 1T phase chromium sulfide halide CrXY (X = O, S, Se; Y = Cl, Br, I) monolayers in CrCl2 structure with the P $$\overline{3}$$ 3 ¯ m1 space group. Except for the CrOI monolayer, all CrXY m...
